If I understand your needs are you looking for an admin program or a set of functions for running queries on a MySQL db for output using php, in that case I would look into PHPLIB http://phplib.netuse.de

Please don't PM me with questions.
Use the forums, that is what they are here for.

usually I copy the local.inc file and dump everything under
Class DB extends DB_Sql {
class stuff
}
and then paste the whole db_mysql.inc file into the local file under this and then just include the one file on the pages needing db connection

If you have PHP4 then you have a very good set of database functions at your disposal with the PEAR library, if you have an early version of PHP4 then you will need to download it again to get this library of scripts.

The DB section of PEAR provides an abstraction layer for the DB so that you can change the Database System that you use e.g. MySQL -> pgSQL and not have to change your code (Assuming that the Database and the tables are still the same).
